Stock Image of a Family on a Wagon

This public domain photograph is from the Farm Security Administration/Office of War Information Color Photographs Collection in the Library of Congress.

This is a peaceful public domain stock image captured by Jack Delano for the FSA. In this stock photo, four people are going into town on a Saturday afternoon on a horse drawn wagon. There appears to be one man and three woman in this photograph taken in Greene Co., Georgia.

There is something about the horse-drawn wagon that evokes a simpler, quieter time before car fumes and clouded highways. This image captures the stillness of that nostalgia with blue skies and a carefully dressed family.

This photo was taken by Jack Delano, who was working as an agent of the United States government. Because this image was taken by an employee of the federal government, it is in the public domain. Privacy and publicity rights may apply.
